Beauty from Irina

Received a parcel from Modern 101. She is so talented, such beauty she makes. I loved the painted box. Such a neat job, I love it. And what a cute Wedding Ring Wooden Bucket, no words. (by the way my firstborn claimed it for his wedding in the future :)) But the Wooden Chair chose the second son :) Thank you so much Irina. You have such beautiful things in your store.

Yummy Christmas Tree Ornaments

 

My kids really liked making these cookies and decorating the Christmas Tree with them. They are quick and easy to make and delightful to eat. :) 

You can use food coloring on them. Put icing, sprinkles, etc as well. But we didn't do any of that, ours go just as well without colors. :)

 

Ingredients for Dough: 

2-3 medium-large eggs

1 cup sugar

2 sticks (16 tbsp) unsalted butter, at cold temperature

3 cups all-purpose flour, plus about 1 cup more for dusting

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1. Shred butter into the flour. Mix well. 

2. Mix eggs with sugar until sugar dissolves.

3. Combine butter/flour mixture with egg/sugar mixture. Add baking soda. 

4. Mix very well with mixer or by hand. Split into 3-4 balls and put them into the fridge for an hour. 

5. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface. About 1/8" thick. Cut out any cookie shapes an use a straw to make holes in them for the string to go through.

6. Place all cookies on a floured baking sheet and bake for about 10 minutes on 390 degrees F, or until the edges begin to brown.

 MERRY CHRISTMAS my Dears!!

Crochet plant hanger

 
Now that Christmas is very very close, maybe someone would like this idea as a present or just a decoration for your home in the future. This is very easy to make by yourself, but even easier to buy from my friend's shop. :)
She has very beautiful gift.

Below is a small photo tutorial from Svetlana of the crochet plant hanger.

Some days ago my aunt has a name day and her husband brought a pot of beautiful purple petunias. We decided to hang it at the garden swing. To decorate the plastic container I've crocheted a new hanger.

I've made it to fit different containers with various dimensions. The pot with petunias is 8" wide and the other one I've tried is 5.5".




No need to push the pot into the basket - you just gather segments of the basket around the container without injuring branches and leaves.

 You also could wrap it around the container and tie the knots without hanging.

Our Advent Calendar

Yesterday I had the idea to make an advent calendar. I didn't have a lot of time, and this is what I came up with. The kids are already walking in circles around the fireplace :) In the bags I put little surprises, sweet treats and a small verse from the Bible. I saw the idea of the Bible verses on Facebook and I really liked it.
It's always fun to see the smiles on your child's face when they open the gifts. The kids find this an easy way to countdown til' Christmas. As they open more gifts, the excitement builds up until Christmas Day!

Merry Christmas!
